Compared with other roadusers the motorcyclists have high accident risks. One possible cause of these accidents may be high speeds. Measurements during the summers of 1980-1984 on rural roads have been analyzed. The basic data consist of 80 different measurements from 25 sites. When looking upon the results from the measuring sites that are recurrent at the same time of the year, the authors see that the proportion of motorcycles in traffic was 0.63% in 1981, 0.85% in 1982 and 1.73% in 1983. Through regression analysis it was found that the strongest correlation exists between the mean values of car speeds and motorcycle speeds.
